Is there anything I need to know before turning it on for the first time? 

Once your sub is built put on some music or a movie and enjoy the fruits of your labor.  
Break-in will occur naturally as the driver suspension loosens up.   It’s nothing that need 
concern you though.   Enjoy!    
 

Care 

The Exodus Subs are built to the highest standards, and are designed to require a minimum 
of care.  Basically… use your head.   If you decide to clean the cone, use non-solvent based 
cleaners.   Water based products are the safest. 

Warranty 

Well, you’ve made it to the Exodus Audio Plain English Warranty.      
 
 We’ll cover any manufacturing problems for: 
 

• 

12 months from date of purchase for any materials defect the transducer that isn’t 
related to abuse. 

 
This warranty covers things that are the direct result of manufacturing problems only.   You 
connect the low-level inputs to the wall socket, or put a screwdriver through the cone, it’s 
not covered.  Likewise cigarette burns, cup rings, or other damage from abuse or misuse.  
Basically, if you take care of the unit, and treat it in a sane manner (don’t use it as jack 
stand, etc.), then you’ve got nothing to worry about. 
 
Any warranty claim must be handled through direct communication with us.   
 
We reserve the right to act as the final authority with regard to a valid claim.  We reserve 
the right to decide to repair or replace any problem that qualifies for warranty work.  The 
customer is solely responsible for shipping charges related to warranty repair. 
 
We don’t want to scare you with our liability wavier but the Shiva-X is a very simple device 
that should give many years of service without need for service or repair.
